Following the collection of poems "Mother", "Songs for Mother" and the long poem "Ninety-Year-Old Mother", Liu Fujun created the long poem "Mother" (published by Hebei Education Publishing House).

It was a soulful ballad he dedicated to his 93-year-old mother.

  The mother is the inexhaustible emotional driving force of poetry through thousands of years.

Writing on the theme of mother, it is not difficult to write true feelings, but day after day, year after year, I insist on writing a deep feeling, and it is in harmony with my behavior in life, and truly achieves a sincere writing that integrates words and deeds. , it is difficult; it is not difficult to write about a mother's love, but it is difficult to present the poetic pursuit of its own nature.

Liu Fujun's writing on the theme of mother is simple and rich, with a strong conscious pursuit.

  In Liu Fujun's poems, there are no gorgeous decorations, no complicated relationships, just a simple mother and son, family and village, and a simple and sincere communication of this kind of family love.

Judging from the title of the poem, "Mom", the colloquial nickname of this reduplication, has a more simple and intimate expression, an undisguised child's love, a kind of intimate mother-son love, in the change of time and Looking back, it is still bright and lively.

From childhood to middle age, from green to twilight, it lasts for a long time, and I will never forget it.

There are 99 stanzas in the whole poem, which contains the poet's gratitude and eternal wishes for his mother's eternal life.

The fragrance of mother's love through the lines makes us yearn for and adhere to a happy family life.

The 93-year-old mother is vivid and vivid in the narration of 57-year-old Liu Fujun.

The poet is present, the mother is present, and this is a confession to the mother, but even more in this kind of whispering, the reader feels like a spring breeze, and the reader also becomes a presence without knowing it. Kind of brothers with hearts, talking about family, talking about mother, talking about neighbors.

The poet also entrusts us with the greatest shelter and comfort that a mother has given to a home.

Like Liu Fujun, we are caught in the interweaving of presence and memory, as we look at our own growth, our own love for home and mother.

  This long poem has a natural narration and lyricism, like the water in the mountains and rivers, and the waves of emotion jump between the flowers.

Liu Fujun's talk to his mother is not only a life history of his mother, but also a history of his own growth.

In the interweaving of reality and memory, this long poem alternately presents various narrative perspectives, and forms a multi-voice tension with the natural discovery and epiphany of life.

  Liu Fujun still has a childlike portrayal of her mother, which allows an elderly person to maintain an enviable childlike innocence, and maintain the holiness and beauty of her inner emotions. "One day she ate Indian green / smacking her lips and laughing. Nonstop: This apple tastes like milk, / I'm so old, / I'm getting milk again."

Such interesting strokes abound, and they have illuminated the innocent and clear heart of my mother.

We also seem to penetrate time and witness the preciousness of motherhood.

  In "Mom", "Peach Blossom" can be described as the eye of poetry. It appears many times in the poem. It is not only the power source of the plot, but also the accelerant of emotion. Especially in Section 2, there are 5 Mountain Peach Blossoms, which lays the foundation for the whole poem. The aesthetic tone of "When I was fifteen / She married a man six years older than her / The mountain peach blossoms opened / The mountain peach blossoms withered / Mom's spring is short / Mom and dad are opposite the mountain peach blossom / Building a cottage , from/on the opposite cliff lives the mountain peach blossom/across from the mountain peach blossom lives the mother".

  The image of "Peach Blossom" has been endowed with both emotional and spiritual connotations since ancient times. It not only carries the emotions of spring, women, love, immortality, etc., but also implies the pursuit of the unity of man and nature of "feeling in things".

Liu Fujun specially emphasized that it is not the delicate peach blossoms, but the mountain peach blossoms that have experienced wind and rain. There is calcium in the bright, and there is strength in the richness.

The image of "Peach Blossom" here is the incarnation of the mother. "On the opposite cliff lives Peach Blossoms. Opposite the Peach Blossoms, there is a mother." The mother and the Peach Blossoms complement each other and blend with each other. The beautiful meaning of women, love, and even immortality.
